Title: Recovery of high quality water from produced water arising from a thermal hydrocarbon recovery operation using vacuum technologies
Inventor: SPEIRS BRIAN C
IPC: C02F1/04
Filed: 2007-11-02
Granted: 2011-08-23
Abstract: Waste heat and water resulting from thermal hydrocarbon recovery operations can be reduced and re-used according to a method which involves accessing a hot water stream produced in a thermal hydrocarbon recovery operation; vapourizing water from the water stream by applying a vacuum, thereby producing water vapour; and condensing the water vapour to produce high quality water. A system is also described for recovering high quality water from a thermal hydrocarbon recovery operation. The system includes a hot water intake interfacing with a hot water stream from a thermal hydrocarbon recovery operation; a vapourization module receiving the hot water stream from the hot water intake, comprising a vacuum chamber in which a vacuum is applied to produce water vapour from the hot water stream; a condensation module in which water vapour produced in the vapourization module is condensed to form high quality water; and a water outlet for releasing the high quality water from the condensation module for re-use within the thermal hydrocarbon recovery operation. The high quality water produced is of near distilled quality and is suitable for use as boiler feedwater.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for detecting and isolating phosphomolecules using phosphoaffinity materials that comprise a hydrated metal oxide. In an embodiment, a method for detecting a phosphomolecule in a sample involves (a) contacting a sample with a phosphoaffinity material comprising a hydrated metal oxide, under conditions wherein a phosphomolecule is capable of binding to the phosphoaffinity material to form a phosphomolecule-phosphoaffinity material complex, and (b) detecting formation of a phosphomolecule-phosphoaffinity material complex, thereby detecting a phosphomolecule in the sample. In another embodiment, a method for isolating a phosphomolecule from a sample involves (a) contacting a sample with a phosphoaffinity material comprising a hydrated metal oxide, under conditions wherein a phosphomolecule is capable of binding to the phosphoaffinity material to form a phosphomolecule-phosphoaffinity material complex, wherein the hydrated metal oxide comprises yttrium, and (b) separating the phosphomolecule-phosphoaffinity material complex from the sample, thereby isolating the phosphomolecule from the sample.

Abstract: A flat spatial response LIDAR apparatus for detecting particles within a short range is provided. The apparatus includes a light source projecting a light beam which is back-scattered by the particles to be detected. The back-scattered light is received, detected and analyzed. A spatial filter spatially filters the received back-scattered light in order to flatten the spatial response of the apparatus, so that a same concentration of particles at any distance within the short range will generate a signal of substantially the same intensity. This is for example accomplished by a properly profiled mask disposed in front of the detector, or a plurality of spatially distributed waveguides. As a result, the LIDAR apparatus can compensate for the 1/r2 dependence, or other dependences of the back-scattered light on the distancer.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for a controlled injection of a drug into a selected tissue of a subject by a practitioner, uses a drive unit for supplying the drug and a handpiece to be held and guided by the practitioner, connected to the drive unit for receiving the drug. The handpiece holds an injection needle to be inserted into the selected tissue by the practitioner for passing the drug to the selected tissue at an instantaneous and absolute pressure that varies as a function of the type of tissue and the placement of the needle. A pressure sensor senses this instantaneous pressure and a feedback mechanism supplies a perceptible audible, visual or other signal to the practitioner that indicates when the instantaneous pressure has reached a minimum desired pressure, the practitioner thus being informed that the correct placement and dosage has been attained.

Title: System and method for interrupting a transmitting communication unit in a communication system
Inventor: GILBERT JOHN M
IPC: H04W76/06
Filed: 2007-10-12
Granted: 2012-11-27
Abstract: A system and method for interrupting a transmitting communication unit in a communication system. When a call is first initiated, the call is assigned to a communication channel and broadcast from a base site using the assigned communication channel. If it is determined that a transmitting communication unit should be interrupted, a zone controller signals a base site to generate an interrupt message. The base site generates an interrupt message containing an identification code for the transmitting communication unit and broadcasts the interrupt message on an outbound link of the communication channel. The transmitting communication unit, while transmitting on an inbound link of the communication channel, continuously monitors the outbound link. If the transmitting communication unit receives, on the outbound link, an interrupt message containing an identification code matching its own identification code, the transmitting communication unit stops transmitting.

Abstract: A stand-alone frac liner that allows for fracturing of multiple lateral legs of a multilateral well on a single call out and rig-up of fracturing equipment. Tools and techniques are provided that include setting multiple stand-alone frac liners in multiple lateral legs of the multilateral well. The liners may rest in the legs physically un- tethered to surface equipment. Thus, a single call out of a frac string tubular and associated equipment may be used to frac the lateral legs in sequence from one leg to the next. This may be achieved without the requirement of removal of the tubular from the well or disconnect of surface fracturing equipment between the lateral fracture applications. Thus, a considerable amount of expenses associated with time and manpower may be saved.
